Chapter 676: 363 has a situation_2

Bai Zhengli chuckled. Long Province was a major food-producing province. There might be a shortage of other resources, but there would definitely be no shortage of food! The food stored in the warehouses here alone could feed all the survivors in Long Province for years. How could there be any concern about outsiders trying to snatch resources!

In the apocalypse, as long as the food issue was resolved, the lack of other living supplies wouldn’t drive people insane. Once the food was secured, drinking water could be completely managed by Water Element Superpower Users, and if not, there were always Ice Ability Users. What was there to worry about?

The young man was clearly lying!

However, Bai Zhengli did believe him when he said that some survivors wouldn’t welcome outsiders. After all, the more people there were, the more complicated their thoughts became. Especially during chaotic times, it was too easy for people’s psychology to become twisted!

He didn’t expose the young man’s lies, but just smiled and said, "Then what do you think we should do?"

This time, the young man hesitated. He didn’t know how to answer Bai Zhengli’s question. He vaguely sensed that the person he was facing was too tough to handle, probably beyond his capabilities! Wu Ke had instructed him to try and get information from the other party, but he had spoken so much, and the other party had only given vague information, quickly seizing the initiative and reversing the question onto him!

How was he supposed to answer? He couldn’t just tell them directly that they needed help, could he? That would make their position even more passive! More importantly, he still hadn’t extracted any useful information from the other party. He didn’t know what sort of person Bai Zhengli was; if these people were actually wolves in disguise, wouldn’t letting them into their base and collaborating with them be like inviting wolves into the house?

He unconsciously turned to look at Wu Ke, his eyes filled with guilt: "Ah Ke, I’m sorry, I didn’t handle this well."

Wu Ke didn’t blame him. She had heard the entire conversation earlier and realized that the person they encountered was tough to deal with, so it was normal for the young man to be no match. She sighed, hesitating whether to propose a collaboration directly, when suddenly, the falcon on top of the vehicle started screeching sharply, emitting a series of piercing cries!

Wu Ke and her teammates were already familiar with the habits of the Mutated Falcon; as soon as they heard that noise, they understood that an enemy had appeared—it was sending a warning! They instinctively thought zombies had appeared, but when they looked, they didn’t see the anticipated zombies. Instead, a huge black dot was flying towards them from a distance!

Upon closer inspection, they realized that it was not a dot but a man standing on a Mutant Golden Eagle! From afar, they couldn’t see his face clearly, but just the way he stood atop the Mutant Golden Eagle, he seemed to exude an aura of authority that astonished Wu Ke and her teammates!

Wu Ke noticed that the Mutant Golden Eagle was much larger than her Mutated Falcon, likely also higher in level! Thus, she almost instinctively began staring at Fang Yuyang on the back of the golden eagle. The young man beside her looked at this scene, and his face suddenly turned somewhat gloomy.

Then, they realized that the man had landed in the middle of the convoy, clearly with the convoy’s people! Seeing this, they grew even more alarmed—what kind of people were in this convoy? The man seemed very strong; was he the leader of the convoy? If he wasn’t, how terrifyingly powerful would the actual leader be?

As they speculated, Fang Yuyang had already reported what he had seen to Bai Zhengli. Like before, the golden eagle had carried him around the area, and he even saw several small bases. To avoid being seen as an enemy, he didn’t observe directly above those small bases but just took a brief look from a distance.

However, even from that brief glance, he noticed several issues—the small bases seemed off!

Just like other places, these small bases also had Corpse Hunters coming out to hunt zombies. But differently, Fang Yuyang felt that the Corpse Hunters he saw all seemed somewhat listless; he didn’t know why. However, they fought desperately when hunting zombies, but once someone got injured, that person would look desperate, and the others would show a look of sympathy as if that person was doomed.

Fang Yuyang found it strange because the injuries of those people weren’t very severe. As long as there was a Wood Element Superpower User, they could easily be healed; he really couldn’t understand why they would feel so desperate?

From that moment, he realized that something seemed not quite right here. Then after making a full round in the nearby area and seeing that many people were in similar conditions, he realized that things might be serious.

After returning, he reported what he had seen. Bai Zhengli listened to his report and thought back to the young man’s words, his mind gradually forming an answer.

Fang Yuyang saw he seemed deep in thought and didn’t disturb him. He returned to the vehicle and mentioned what he had seen to his family. Then he asked, "What’s the deal with that vehicle not far away? Are they local survivors? Why are there so many mutated animals? Could they all be Contracted Beasts?"

Fang Yuxin nodded, then told Fang Yuyang about Bai Zhengli’s conversation with the other party. Fang Yuyang stroked his chin, pondering for a moment, then suddenly said, "In that case... there really might be a problem with this place."

Fang Yuxin also said, "I think so too. The problem should be with Chengtian Base. These people coming to us probably have some scheme in mind, but if Chengtian Base is really this overbearing, we might as well just take them down! Just don’t know... how strong this base actually is..." (To be continued. If you like this work, you are welcome to vote, recommend, and give monthly tickets at Qidian(qidian.com).
